My experience is that verbalising myself into an unconditional state doesn’t work; it must be felt. Embodiment and some mindful practice helps. Also an acceptance that there are some days where I’m just going to say “why me” and curl into a ball of denial. 3 Reply Varsha1 year agoVarshaProbably if I had a perspective that what I have is enough and I don’t really need more. This would help me say yes to my life today. I am truly happy where I am today, but also at times keep wanting things I don’t have. 2 Reply Cathie1 year agoCathieHmm - I keep waffling on the interpretation of this question. To accept life and give an unconditional yes exactly as my life is today, well I could only give that unconditional yes, if I felt and understood that I didn't have the power to change things that I feel may need to be changed. But if the question indicates accepting the life I am living and working toward those changes, then I could give an unconditional yes.

I’ve been thinking about this more recently as an acquaintance of mine was recently hit by a car while trying to change a tire on the side of the freeway. He suffered severe injury and as a result, needed to have a leg amputated. In a split second he lost that ability to walk and his life changed forever. 6 Reply Holly in Ohio1 year agoHolly in OhioI’m sorry for your friend, Lauryn. It used to be people would move over or slow down. We could all be a little more cautious. 2 Reply Linda1 year agoLindaGratitude. 4 Reply Sarah1 year agoSarahWhat has helped me is being "anchored" to the things that give peace and connection to God. For me this is QiGong, being outside gardening or walking, taking a deep breath, silencing the mind (ego). Many of the audiobooks I have been "finding" i.e. you find the right things at the right time have helped me to rest in knowing that any feeling or problem, I can lay at the feet of my guru, Jesus. His Sacred Heart, the filling of the Holy Spirit, and trusting that my inner wisdom is fed by Truth. ...What has helped me is being “anchored” to the things that give peace and connection to God.

When I say “yes” to God, to being “here now” the peace that passes all understanding is real, and my heart is full of joy. Thanks be to God. Read More6 Reply Toni1 year agoToniNothing is as it seems. So saying “yes” to me means contentment and with that comes possibilities I might not have noticed before due to resistance or discontentedness with what is. Being grateful for where I’m at at this stage in my life is the best way to say “yes” and grow from here. 6 Reply Neil1 year agoNeilQuite simply nothing. We are all made of love which is already limitless and perfect and being mindful of that is our daily challenge. 8 Reply Carol1 year agoCarolAcceptance 7 Reply Javier Visionquest1 year agoJavier Visionquesta cure 7 Reply Katrina1 year agoKatrinaIntentionality – actually saying to myself that I will say ‘yes’ to my life as it is today. Availability – actually saying yes when opportunities to serve or reach out to others with compassion/empathy present themselves Wisdom – knowing when and how to evaluate my own limitations It’s not unlike living the Serenity Prayer each day. 9 Reply DeVonna1 year agoDeVonnaThe realization that life in all it’s imperfections and complications is precious and a gift. 7 Reply Patricia1 year agoPatriciaI’m saying yes now.
